âVisually stunning and funny, this is recommended for all libraries serving children and has potential to be used in language arts classes beyond elementary as a prompt for writing projects.â â School Library Journal (starred review)
âThroughout the fluidly drawn and brightly colored adventures, Bitsy doubts her narrating chops, but encouragement from Boozle emphasizes the creatorsâ assertion that everyoneâs POV is unique, making for a memorable story-within-a-story and a noteworthy tale.â â Publishers Weekly
âA playful, smart way of teaching storytelling formats, Bitsyâs successful journey as a narrator should encourage readers to give writing a try.â â Booklist
âDelightful, deliberate, and engaging. Bitsy explicates Boozleâs odyssey with zest, and Boozleâs speech bubbles, filled with snarky nonverbal pictograms, perfectly telegraph his irritation at being Bitsyâs puppet player. The tabletop role-playing game vibe, coupled with the narrative concepts being put into practice, together make this a great fit for young writers, gamers, and creators.â â Kirkus Reviews
